Generally, tetanus antitoxin or tetanus vaccine are injected intramuscularly. However, tetanus antitoxin requires a skin test before use, and can only be injected after the test is negative. In addition, there is also a tetanus immunoglobulin, which does not require a skin test. No matter which type of tetanus antitoxin is used for prevention, observation is required for 30 minutes. Generally, the site for intramuscular injection of tetanus is the buttocks, followed by the arms.
